So today I went to see The Dark Knight Rises with a very good friend of mine with whom I do voice work for his podcast. And lo and behold what do I see from outside the theater as I’m waiting for the B.O. to open but a new standee for the new James Bond film SKYFALL starring Daniel Craig and directed by Sam Mendes. Needless to say this puppy is freaking badass!

Below are a few photographs some taken inside and a few from outside. Once The Expendables 2 is out of the way I expect they’ll be moving it into the place where the TE2 standee is but it is very visible from outside the theater.

Later this week I will be returning to take some pictures later in the evening to try and get some from outside sans all the reflections but here’s a few shots that i took just hours ago.

Also a new Teaser for Skyfall premiered during the opening ceremony for the Olympic Games last night and here it is courtesy of youtube:

I am so stoked! Fixing his cufflink at the end of the teaser there is so 007!

Daniel Craig is back as 007 in SKYFALL which is slated to hit theaters stateside on Nov. 9, 2012.

The short and sweet logline reads as follows: “Bond’s loyalty to M is tested as her past comes back to haunt her. As MI6 comes under attack, 007 must track down and destroy the threat, no matter how personal the cost.”

I am going to say that it is being directed by Sam Mendes (Road to Perdition) and the lead villain is being played by Javier Bardem!

Below I link you to DigitalSpy’s coverage of the Press Conference to announce the film (some second unit stuff is being shot today) full on shooting begins the 7th of November. The full press conference is fun seeing as how they can’t answer much, but it’s a great thing to listen to the banter…and you’ll find some things I haven’t spoiled for you in this article.
